Looking for some good internet links to learn access

Dear Joe:

Books are good, websites are also very helpful, and newsgroups are utterly
essential, in my opinion! I would suggest the following:

Books (alphabetical order by author) :

Mastering Access (insert version #) Alison Balter
Beginning Access 2000 VBA by Sussman and Smith
Running Access (insert version #) by Viescas

The Access Developer Handbook (by Litwin, Getz, et. al.) is an essential
book for Access developers. However, a beginner might find it a bit
intimidating; I know I do!

If I had to pick just one... it would be Running Access by Viescas.. Others
might have different (and equally valid!) recommendations..

Web Sites:

www.mvps.org/access/ The motherlode!
users.bigpond.net.au/abrowne1/tips.html
www.lebans.com
www.granite.ab.ca/accsmstr.htm
members.rogers.com/douglas.j.steele/AccessIndex.html
www.rogersaccesslibrary.com/

This is a short list of sites that come quickly to mind; there are many
more!

In addition, I would also strongly suggest the rest of the Microsoft Access
newsgroups at:

microsoft.public.access... etc..

More than anything else, I have found the free answers offered by kind
experts in relevant newsgroups to be invaluable. I have had hundreds of
questions answered over the last year or two, and continue to be grateful!

Finally you might find the following useful (and possibly humorous!)...

well... maybe so... but this site does not appear to have ANYTHING to
do with learning to use Microsoft Access(TM). Maybe it would have if
I'd dug further.
